A dozen acetates were cut for DJs to test rough mixes in the wild, album concepts were made and then the pandemic changed plans. People relocated, the line-up evolved and the project was shelved in favour of new recordings that became their acclaimed debut album \"Return To The Spirit\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUnpolished and intuitive, these unreleased \"acetate mixes\" contain a magical spark. These 8 tunes are full of twangy guitars, otherworldly organs, lo-fi synths, big horns and dope drums, a wild mix of breakin' funk, cinematic soul, outernational jazz, surf and garage.

The L.A. collective made waves in the outernational and psych jazz scene with their debut album and a string of mystic live performances in Los Angeles, at SXSW and in Hamburg. With a new album in the works and a full US tour on the horizon, the mysterious band delivers two bangers to shorten the waiting time for their next big move. Transcendental Interplay sits somewhere between Ethio jazz, funked up spagehtti western scores, surfy psychelic and boom bap attitude. Astral Affairs blends sci-fi and outernational jazz with heavy funky drums.
